DWARF BEARDED IRIS 
The demand for good dwarf iris is increasing by leaps and bounds and the improvements in 
form and color evident in recent introductions including our own, surely justify this increased 
popularity. Many varieties were sold out last year and advance orders already indicate another 
shortage this season. 
These charming little iris are so easy and worthy of everyone’s considera- 
tion, especially for brightening odd corners, the rockery and for edging the perennial border. 
Those we offer are truly dwarf and are a carefully selected list of finest varieties every one 
of which is distinct.
